California: From Foster Children to Homeless Adults

California: From Foster Children to Homeless Adults

California is creating homeless adults by failing to ensure that youth in foster care are given the support to live independently as adults and by ending state support abruptly, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. Human Rights Watch said that the state should provide financial support, connections with adults, shelter, and other safety nets for young people as they make the transition toward independence.

    When the state takes a child under parens patriae doctrine as they do in all CPS/CAS cases then they must act as the parent forever when they terminate their parents rights and can't get anyone else to assume them. Therefore, when they fail to support the child at any time, they are violating the several human rights treaties the US has signed. Since every state does so, their child protection acts should be unconstitutional and void. Thus every child protection case should be considered an act of kidnapping by the judge and the state workers and punished accordingly.
